《Wot you sayin'?》You Wouldn't Dare

"Dianne Buswell," I said as I came to sit next to her.
"Neil. What are you doing here? Why does it look like you're planning something?"
"I know I'm not part of the cast, but I got tickets for Katya and I to watch today. So I thought I'd come and pay you a visit." She seemed to accept my explanation. "Anyway, I know people consider your Joe as the Prank King, but I was thinking, as a prankster myself, of getting him back." I could see her excitement building.
"Go on, what do you have in mind?" Though she didn't verbally say it, her eyes were full of mischief.
"Make him paranoid. Oh look, here he comes. Pretend like we're planning something."
Joe walked by and stopped dead in his tracks. As he did so Dianne said, "We are planning something though."
"Yeah, but not that."
"Neil. What are you doing here, and what are you two not planning?"
"Nothing," I said quickly. Too quickly. Hah! Double negative. "Nothing for you to worry about." My eyes gave away that it was something he should worry about.
He looked suspiciously at us. We stared at him. "You wouldn't dare prank me but it feels like you are. And I don't know whose idea it is." He looked between us then his eyes landed on me. His eyes narrowed at me and then he left.
"Love you, Joe!" She giggled at his response.

"You all did so good!" Katya said.
"Yeah, well done, Joe. You still won even though you fell over."
"You and Dianne unnerved me. It's your fault." Dianne went into a fit of giggles. Then she held out her hand for me to give her five. Discreetly. "I can tell you're still up to something."

"I don't know what you're accusing us of." Dianne was too busy laughing. I bet she would have said 'Love you, Joe' again if she were able to do so. Joe still gave the same response which only made Dianne laugh harder. Once he was gone, I whispered right into Dianne's ear, "This opportunity is too good to pass up. He's just made this situation a whole lot worse for himself."
The evening passed by in the same fashion. Joe looked suspiciously at us. I looked innocent. Dianne giggled a lot.
"Why are you still here?! What are you planning?"
Dianne giggled. I shrugged. I don't know what you mean. I don't think he found out what Dianne and I were up to, but boy did he get his own back!

synopsis: In 13507, almost half of humanity lives among the stars as part of a project known as Terra Firma. For millennia, they were steadily supplied with new technology and crew members.

This period became known as the Great Silence. But when a strange ship crash-lands on a Terra Firma world, engineers Christine Hayes and Steve Robbins find themselves face to face with Earth’s second attempt to build a galactic empire. They'll have to make their way through a galaxy full of hostile aliens from dying worlds and the sadistic experiments of a mad scientist, fighting alongside extensively modified soldiers harboring dark and disturbing secrets about the new rulers of humanity, and those who carry out their increasingly unsettling orders. style: Abandoned love child of Tokyo Ghoul and Warhammer 40K reluctantly raised by Ghost in the Shell and Blade Runner. frequency: Updates every Friday.
